Identity and Access Management

Identity and Access Management (IAM) a framework of policies, processes, and technologies for managing digital identities and controlling access to resources. IAM ensures that only authorized users have the right access at the right time, enhancing security and regulatory compliance. Key components include authentication (verifying identity), authorization (determining access rights), access control (RBAC, ABAC, UBAC, CBAC), Single Sign-On (SSO), Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA), and Zero Trust. IAM is essential for protecting sensitive data, preventing unauthorized access, and managing identities across cloud and hybrid environments.Trendig glossary trems
